U.S. Army/Navy/USMC M14-based sniper and DMR/SDM rifles circa late-1960s to late 201Xs

No idea on the scope, but that's definitely a LaRue Stomp mount that doesn't have the top portion attached to it. I actually have one of these mounts available, if anyone needs it. It's pretty difficult to find the old Stomp mounts.
Looking closer, I wonder if it's one of the old Horus. Seems the Razors had the illum housing offset and those turrets look small and capped.

Maggie’s Funny & awesome pics, vids and memes thread (work safe, no nudity)

I fill the saw with gas when I leave and don’t take any more with me. When that saw is out of gas, I’m done cutting.
There is WISDOM in this my brother



Unless you control it from seed stock to table or raise it and process it/have it processed, there is little you can do.

I get the whole health lifestyle, everything will kill you, the water you drink to the air you breathe, we are slowly killing ourselves, directly or indirectly.
The thing is, it doesn’t have to be perfect to be wildly effective.

You’re right you will never get it 100% but if you get it measurably better you will see huge benefit. I never let perfect be the enemy of good.

It isn’t just food either. It is management of your environment as well as you can. If anyone is interested in learning or exploring more, look up doctors Andrew Huberman and Paul Saladino as 2 great places to start.

*** What I am talking about isn’t a “diet”, it is a change in how you view everything that relates to you metabolically. Everything. Both of my parents died of cancer and that is reason enough to be concerned about what affects my body but what will keep me on this path is how I feel. Nothing short of miraculous has this turn around been. I don’t want to preach or be overbearing but if you are sick and tired of being sick and tired…you don’t need more “medicine” you need better inputs.

What MOA dot for target Aquisition on bolt guns?

How about a impact, RDS, Trigger cam , spirit level, sendit, crushit survey
😂 okay clearly I sound stupid but I thought it would be a good option for targets where you don’t know distance and you want rds for quicker target pickup. The plan is not to just overload the gun with shit that is useless. The only thing that is interesting is if you use the rds as zero for impact and use that as your zero, you would have to dial back to zero to get your dope. Is that incorrect?

Leveling a scope is dumb

Never owned a scope level.
Always installed my own optics by eyeballing.
Always seem to be on target...whether its 22 precision at 250yds or 30-06 at a mile.
So i am fucking good or lucky, according to the "experts".

Ive seen folks get obsessed about it. Hey...if it feels good...do it.

Unless you are hydrocephalic.....your brain and eye will pretty naturally line shit up straight pretty fucking close.

.308 Winchester

I got a couple boxes of the 168 sierra tipped bullets and so far so good, 44.5varget win brass 2.82" win primer supposed to try them on steel to 1000 tomorrow. So far the 169smk has been the best.
It's funny, some people swear by the tipped Sierra's and some people hate them. I never saw anything to write home about in any of the Black Hills ammo loaded with them and the few I tried with handloads were nothing special.

I really am a Berger whore, however my current .308 bolt gun has a longer throat and most Bergers come in at .050-.100 off the lands even loaded at 2.95 OAL, so I found the 210 Sierra loaded at that length is right at the sweet spot.

.308 Winchester

I want to settle on one bullet to shoot in my 308's, bolt gun and gasser. Not the same load, but the same bullet.

It needs to fly decent to at least 800 and kill pretty well also. Kind of leaves the the smk out of the picture. I've had good luck with the 178eld-m in my 20" bolt gun, but I feel I give up to much speed with the 16" in the LMT.

They both like hornady black with the 168Amax. The LMT really does well with it. Thinking about just going all in on the old school Amax.

Thoughts and opinions welcome.
Is 168 ELDM not the obvious answer here? Can try out a box of the white box Match ammo and see how it shoots before committing.

Don't sleep on the Berger 175 OTM. Has been phenomenal in my M1A.
